Problem following an update

Post by Tyzy Ghost »

Automatically translated from French.

Hi guys, so here I am bringing up (once again) a problem for my brother-in-law. This time it's about the Xbox360, so, his Xbox had been cracked until now and worked perfectly fine when it came to reading burned discs (DVD+R generally) but there was an accidental update because of a new game (bought legally), Assassin's Creed: Revelations... so here's the problem, no the console isn't dead, but it's no longer able to read burned DVDs and the like, if you want the interface number, it's this one: 2.0.14719.0

Not having 120 euros to waste at some scammer's place, I'd rather ask experts and therefore, basically, you. So, I'd like to know about two possible alternatives, the first would be (if possible) for the console to be able to read burned DVDs again, the second would be (totally optionally) for it to be able to use the same system as the Wii like Wiiflow or USBloader GX, meaning it could read discs through a USB port (more specifically an external hard drive) and if there's a similar method. I should mention that it works very well with non-burned games and that because of this invisible update everything was ruined.

Details: If possible, is there a way to dodge automatic updates, like for Gecko OS or Wiiflow (or other Loaders) and all that WITHOUT GOING THROUGH THE HARDWARE (I don't know anything AT ALL about soldering and such)

Thanks in advance for a quick and/or precise answer.

Tyzy Ghost.

There, Mamule covered it all, to possibly play in wii mode with a HDD, there's the RGH and otherwise there's also drive emulators like xkey ;)

After that it's a personal choice, the RGH requires soldering skills but it's the best of the best ;)

Thanks for the quick reply, as always, but there's a snag, I'm not that knowledgeable about the Xbox360 so.. how do I "Re-flash" the drive? can you point me to tutorials for the two proposed solutions? Thanks in advance man!

(PS: Which key?... xD)

the dvd key ... each xbox has its own dvd key, without it you can pretty much throw your xbox in the trash. Pretty much because there is still a way to recover it.

First to point you to a tutorial, we need to know what kind of xbox it is. A fat or slim? Then also the type of drive .... and lastly, check your budget if you want to do it yourself.

After that I could help you and point you to the right hardware ;)

the real question to ask is: did the person (scammer :P) who flashed your brother-in-law's xbox drive provide a CD with the original firmware and the drive key on it!!??

Type of Xbox360: FAT (black)
DVD Key: Where can I find the DVD key?
Drive type: How can I find out?

The scammer just took the Xbox360, flashed it, then gave it back... it worked fine until the Assassins Creed Revelations update :/

Indeed good question but the key is always recoverable, the only thing that changes is that he'll have to switch to LT 3.0 and possibly re-burn his XGD3 backups .... with this crappy update, now the game will be checked so you need to patch it beforehand and burn it again! Not cool ....

Ah and 120€ for a flash .... that's outrageous!

For the drive and for the key, you need to open the xbox ... there's no 36000 ways unfortunately, you recover it just before flashing the drive.

Did your flasher not give you anything?

I see I see, unfortunately I still don't understand the process... At worst for reading burned DVDs it doesn't really matter, is there a simpler method than that one, and so, going straight through a DDE to launch the games? and so going through external software (Style Wiiflow and the like) I've never haxxay'd a Xbox360 and I really don't know what to do... the burned CDs matter little, we're focusing more on being able to use a DDE for now... do you have an idea? tell me what steps to follow? thanks in advance.

You have two solutions the glitch, or the xkey!

Glitch equals disassembly, soldering, creating the image, etc...
Xkey, equals console disassembly, that's it, the xkey itself recovers the dvd key. then you add an external hdd

Price wise glitch (chip price between 20 and 40€ + installation, etc..)

Xkey between 70 and 80€

So it's not possible to get burned DVDs (and/or DDE) working again without paying?

So there, the tour of solutions is done .... now up to you to decide. Do it yourself by buying the hardware, etc ... or go through a flasher but if he asks 120€ for a flash, run away immediately :mrgreen:


And no, without spending at least a bit of money, unfortunately there's no solution .... sorry

I see I see... we'll try to find someone else to flash it (for around 10Euros) Flashing and Re-flashing is the same thing right? I'll mark the topic as "Resolved", thanks for the help!

the snag is unless you find a very generous flasher, he'll surely ask you the price of a new flash (knowing he'll need to recover the dvd key) .... a new flash or a re-flash is the same method except that for a re-flash normally your flasher or you have the dvd key. Good luck .... and from now on no more updates ;)

hi

Indeed, for a flash, count around 40€
Reset Hack Glitch (dump of a key you already have)
no, it's the DVD key he has (to flash the drive)
For the Glitch, you need the CPU one, and since he did the update to 14719, it's screwed

If it's a slim, you can glitch on 14719, it's more or less simple depending on the motherboards.

The dvd key, the xkey recovers it with any dash, the 14719 didn't touch the flash, nor the xkey.

For the fat ones (glitch, you'll have to be patient) until they find what amounts to a downgrade.

So the simplest solutions for a fat, is the xkey or the flash.

We have good flashers on the site, ovaler, yoann, baordeur, you can send them a PM.
